please make me king

Chapter 1344
On the bank of the Fen River, Luowangzhuang Ferry.

The sound of water murmuring, thousands of sails racing.

Standing on the bank of the Fen River, Zhang Sanbai looked at the ferryboats full of soldiers and horses, and was filled with emotions for a while.

Back then, he and his younger sister Ma Yingniang were just buskers in Luoyang.

In a few years, not only his younger sister became the concubine of King Shun, but he also became a general with a heavy hand.

It's really white clouds and dogs, and the world is impermanent!
Where are the variables in this?
Of course it is His Royal Highness King Shun!

If King Shun hadn't warned him back then, he and his younger sister would have been buried in fish belly with a high probability, how could they be so rich today?
Thinking of this, Zhang Sanbai couldn't help but secretly made up his mind that he would definitely strangle the "East Captive Azige Tribe" in order to repay King Shun's eventuality.

"Zhang Shuai, there is someone watching from the opposite side, could it be the Tartar spies?" At this moment, Li Wanqing saw the movement on the other side of the river, so he couldn't help reminding him quickly.

"Donglu is a soldier in a hundred battles, how can he be careless?" Zhang Sanbai said indifferently when he heard the words, "Tell the officials and the people to speed up the landing, and then line up as planned as soon as possible."

It turned out that this piece of Sanbai thought clearly that if the Houjin soldiers had already entered the Lingshi, he could surprise the entrance of the Lingshi and completely encircle and wipe out the Azig troops.

However, life is often unsatisfactory, so Azig is not a fool, how could he fall into the trap of himself?

Now that Azig has occupied Jiexiu, the most urgent task for the rebel army is to appear outside Jiexiu city as soon as possible to stabilize people's hearts.

It turns out that for Hou Jin, Jiexiu City was a new territory, but for the rebels, it took only a month to occupy Jiexiu and its surrounding areas.

Since ancient times, people's hearts have been unpredictable and impermanent.

Although Zhang Shun was called Renyi, the days when the rebels occupied Shanxi were quite short.

Its favor has not yet come, its power has not been increased, and the people are not submissive or fearful, which is actually the number one hidden worry of the rebel army.

Therefore, for the rebel army, whether they can rush to Jiexiu in the first time and declare their existence is far more important than winning a battle.

Otherwise, if something bad happens in the city and the gentry and merchants turn to the enemy and let the other party have a foundation, then things will be troublesome.

So this time the rebel army not only had to arrive in time, but also with great fanfare.

It is the best policy to make the trouble known to all.

The Luowangzhuang Ferry is only a dozen miles away from Jiexiu City, and it's just a short ride away.

Not long after that, King Azig of Jinyingwu County got the news, he couldn't help being surprised and said, "So fast?"

If the Houjin soldiers walked forward and the rebels chased after them, then it would be considered normal to be able to catch up so quickly.

But now that the Houjin soldiers had just penetrated into the hinterland of the rebel army, a team rushed over. This was a dangerous signal for the battle-tested Azig.

"Junwang, what should we do?" Hearing the words, the left and right couldn't help asking.

"First send [-] cavalry to harass and prevent the 'Shun Bandit' from crossing the river, and then send someone to call back Yangguli and Mandarhan, and prepare for a decisive battle with the 'Shun Bandit'!" Azige groaned for a while, and couldn't help but make up his mind.

"When it comes to attacking and defending cities, I am not as numerous as the Southern Dynasty; when it comes to fighting in the wild, the Southern Dynasty is absolutely invincible!"

"This..." Left and Right Hearing the Words hesitated for a moment, and finally responded helplessly, "Cha!"

"What, let me retreat?" Not long after, Azig's military order came to the Mandarhan camp, and Mandarhan pointed at the crumbling royal compound, and he couldn't help but dare not believe it.

The use of soldiers in Houjin has always paid attention to "cutting the weeds and eradicating the roots". For example, the white-armed soldiers, the Qi family army, and all opponents who dared to resist themselves, who were more threatening to Houjin, attacked at all costs.

Now that the destruction of the royal family compound is in sight, the county king actually ordered the troops to retreat, which is really unprecedented.

"The military order of the county king is like this, if you don't want to listen, then I can't help it!" Hearing this, the visitor sneered, turned around and was about to leave.

Seeing this, the Mandarhan couldn't help being startled, and hurriedly begged: "Don't, don't, I'll withdraw my troops now, I'll withdraw my troops now!"

The post-Jin military law was harsh. Although Naman Dahan belonged to Zhenghuangqi, and his master was Mrs. Hong, the "sage today", he was also worried that Azig would deal with him openly and aboveboard for the reason of disobeying the military order.

Following Mandarhan's order, the Houjin soldiers who had already breached the second gate of Wang's Manor receded like a tide.

Wang's guards and Ding Zhuang, who were struggling to support at first, only felt that once the pressure was gone, they suddenly felt like they would survive the catastrophe.

"Retreat, the Jianlu soldiers have retreated!" Seeing the terrifying enemy retreat, everyone couldn't help shouting excitedly.

Soon these voices reached the ears of Wang Xie, the Patriarch of the Wang family, and he couldn't help but repeatedly confirmed: "Really? Are you really retiring?"

"It's really retired, master, it's really retired!" the old housekeeper couldn't help crying with joy.

"Our Wang family saved it, saved it!"

"Hey, I really saved it!" Wang Xie's tense nerves relaxed, and he almost fell to the ground.

"By the way, where is Wang An? Let him quickly send a few more people to confirm whether it is Jianlu who has retreated, or don't care about it, lest the other party make a comeback!"

"Wang An was shot by Jianlu, and now he is recuperating, and I have already sent other people to do it!" The old housekeeper replied.

"Yeah!" Wang Xie nodded and said, "It's not serious, find a doctor to take a good look at him, and don't hurt his life."

"It's getting late today, so I won't go there. Tomorrow morning, I'll bring some gifts to visit him, and I'll also visit the other wounded by the way."

"My lord is benevolent and righteous!" the old housekeeper praised him.

"By the way, is the reason for Jianlu's retreat this time because of King Shun's soldiers?" Wang Xie waved his hand, not paying attention to the old housekeeper's compliment, but ordered instead.

"You send someone to verify it as soon as possible. This is related to our future."

"Understood, there are still people from us inside and outside the city, I guess there will be news tomorrow morning." The old butler pondered for a moment before replying involuntarily.

"Oh, by the way, the Ji and Hou families in the north of the city also came."

"Their two families were also attacked this morning, but because our family warned in advance, we had already made preparations, so we didn't suffer much loss."

"They expressed that they were ready to follow the lead of the family, and the three families will work together to advance and retreat together!"

"Okay, it's enough to have their words!" Wang Xie nodded and said, "You understand my thoughts, so I won't say more."

"Understood, the old slave will do it now!" The old butler heard that the master had a "difference" and couldn't help but hastily responded.

Not to mention how the Wang, Ji, Hou and other families care about it, let's say that the rebel army has just crossed a battalion of troops, and a group of cavalry has already appeared in the rebel army's sight.

"No, the Donglu cavalry is here!" Li Wanqing couldn't help but screamed.

"What are you panicking about? Act according to the plan!" Zhang Sanbai scolded him, and then ordered, "Let the battleship attack, and use artillery and bird guns to cover the wings of the officials and civilians."

It turned out that the first battalion to cross the Fen River was none other than the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

This official Fumin was originally the son of Guan Bingzhong, a famous general in Yansui, who was originally the deputy general of Ningxia. It was only because the rebel army captured Ningxia that he surrendered King Shun.

Although this person's reputation is not obvious, his status and status are extraordinary.

Even though he was under Zhang Sanbai's command now, Zhang Sanbai didn't dare to shout at him, instead he and Zhang Tianlin were used as his assistants.

One of these two is respected among the surrendered generals, and the other is famous among the Shaanxi rebels, but they also complement each other and are different from each other.

When Zhang Tianlin performed so well during the attack on Fenzhou City earlier, the official Fumin kept holding his breath.

Now seeing Zhang Sanbai letting himself take the lead, crossing the Fen River first, and establishing a bridgehead position, it was exactly what he wanted.

Seeing the Hou Jin cavalry appear on the eastern horizon, the officials and civilians couldn't help shouting "Good job", and then ordered the soldiers to line up with their backs.

What array is it?

Back to the water but the moon array!
Sun Chuanting was not alone, in fact, since the rebel army's campaign planning was to be carried out along the Fen River, Zhang Shun naturally asked his generals to rehearse this battle more.

Although the official Fumin was not as resourceful and brave as his father, Guan Bingzhong, he was still a veteran general, and he still had this ability.
